MODERATORS
They're owned by private equity firm CVC Capital Partners. It's just their way of saying they're gutting the staff to increase profits for shareholders.
There's been some pretty clear cases where the OSRS team has been forced to look into microtransactions, or profit-focused mechanics that have had huge pushback by the player base and they know that.
They can only fight the shareholders for so long, jagex is on its way out.
Sucks but that's capitalism baby!
PVE will destroy companies wherever it touches eventually. rs3 is like on its 3rd owners right now.
